Why did I let this happen?
January 9, 2012
Clawed and poisoned
Why did this happen?
Torn and shredded
Why did you have to do this?
Broken and shattered
Why did you do that to my heart?
Smeared and stained
Why did you cut me open?
Swollen and teary
Why did you cause me this pain?
Weak and forgiving
Why couldn’t you break someone your own size?
Shaking and scarred
Why was this the only thing that would make you happy?
Makeup smeared
Heart no more
Giving up all hope
Sick
Ashamed
Cold
Regretful
Angry
Pain
Why did I let you do this to me?
